Which values to pass

Ralf Schmidt

Hi!

I have a geometry divided in to two parts. Now I want to use the results at the boundary of the first parts simulation as a starting condition for the second parts simulation. So my question is now, what are the values that had to be passed??

Of course, there are the x-, y- and z-velocities and the temperature. But how to pass (and read) the appropriate turbulence values?? I am using k-e for the first and k-omega for the second.

Do I have to use in both models the same turbulence model or is there a way to transform the characteristic values into each other?

And what about vorticity, enthalpy, heat flux, velocity gradients and temperature gradients?

Any help is appreciated!

Ralf
